    'The truth is there's no such thing as a normal life. There's just the time you get and how you spend it.'In the summer of 2000, seventeen-year-old AJ Graves dreams of being a writer; instead, she's stuck working in a video rental store, with slim odds of escaping her small town and large family. Then in walks the enigmatic and intense Noah Drew, of the infamous Drew acting dynasty, and her life changes forever. Despite wildly different upbringings, the two forge a deep bond first as friends, then as acting partners, until the day Noah disappears without a word. Seven years later in New York City, AJ is shocked to find herself cast in the same TV production as Noah, by then a well-known Hollywood heartthrob. As their on-screen characters grow closer every day, the lines between reality and acting begin to blur.

Blending explosive chemistry, devastating emotion and unforgettable characters, INTO THE BLUE is an extraordinary novel that asks you to believe in the power of telling your own story, even if you know how it's going to end.
